Cooking Class: Elevated Italian Classics
Craft an Italian feast from scratch, inspired by traditional Sardinian recipes, in this hands-on cooking class.
Begin with a refreshing Caesar salad with homemade dressing, topped with crunchy croutons and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese. Then craft a semolina and potato dough to make homemade gnocchi. Plus, you'll master the techniques to knead the dough and shape the pillowy dumplings perfectly. As the gnocchi boils, simmer fresh tomatoes with basil and olive oil to craft a traditional sauce finished with Parmesan cheese. Then, make savory beef and pork meatballs covered in tomato sauce served on top of rustic bread. Finish the meal by layering espresso-soaked ladyfingers and mascarpone cheese to make a decadent tiramisù for dessert. Book this cooking class today!
